Turkey is shifting an Anka-S to Azerbaijan. What extra capabilities does the Anka give relative to TB2 on the battleground?

It has satcom unlike bayraktar which give it extended strike range and surveillance

Armenians made a historical mistake by attacking Tovuz. It is one of Georgia's lifebloods.

True, but the distances are relatively small in Karabagh. TB2 with ground guidance should be enough.

Is it possible to connect Karabakh with Nahcivan?

They need a good excuse. There is a road that links NK and Nakhchivan that follows the Aras river so Azeris only need a small corridor. So the M8 road in Nakhchivan can link with the E002 road in Azerbaijan.

They could say that they are preventing arms from entering from Iran and Russia and take that area but it is very much down to the international community. Problem is it will leave Armenia with no friendly borders to outside world, but if the world is aware that this access is via Iran then I don't see Armenia getting much sympathy.

Once securing NK this would be my next objective along with taking other historically Turk populated areas to be used later for negotiations.

But truth is I think the Azeris will take this corridor even if it means sanctions.

That's correct. Armenian-occupied Karabag is 11,458 km2, which is about the same size as our Kutahya.
AFAIK, TB2 uses line-of-sight RF communication in the S-band for transmitting commands, telemetry as well as video in real time. Assuming TB2 flying at 20,000 feet, the LOS distance from the ground station would be 278 km. Because radio waves can propagate better than visible light and S-band can utilize some ionospheric bouncing, the radio horizon maxes out at about 320 km assuming favorable weather, using the attached radio horizon formulas.

So 320 km is about the maximum distance we can fly a TB2 at 20,000 feet, which is plenty. At higher altitude the distance will be even longer.

This means if we place a control station in Agri, we can fly our TB2s all over Armenia, Karabakh and well into Azerbaijani airspace without breaking LOS.

That said, I believe TB2 also has a programmable autonomous flight mode that doesn't require any remote control. If LOS is lost or radio communication is interrupted (because of EW/jamming, etc) it can follow a pre-programmed flight path and return to base using its internal navigation system. It can even land itself which is pretty cool.

Your not gonna find many countries with better position then Pakistan with regards to Armenia.

Pakistan is the only country in the world that does not recognize Armenia as a state. Primary causes of the two countries' diplomatic rift are the Armenian Genocide and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. ... Pakistan had supported Azerbaijan during and after the Nagorno-Karabakh War.

Boss, what more do you want?

235 million Pakistanis (expats included) are behind the Azeris.

Made up rubbish bro. Azeris are lions doing the fighting. But material support and tactical support is there for sure.

Hidden message. The guy with his head covered and Wagner badge must be Putin.

I think there is a secret plan to invade southern Armenia. The casus belli is already there, Azerbaijan just needs to announce it.

On what basis do you claim this? International pressure would leave Azerbaijan isolated in such a case, their silence is enough for the moment dont need to further complicate the issue from Azeri POV.

In my opinion, a decisive victory was achieved quickly in Libya . Putschit general flew away ended his dream broken heart of Macron .

Tho you guys should remember that it was bloody for Bayraktars back in late 19/ early 20s as well. They were even unable to take off safely without getting shot down back in the day. Yes, Bayraktars completely annihilated Pantsirs in Libya but it came with some costs as well, specially on the early times of Turkish involvement.

Disappointing weak performance by the Lora - time to use a Bora!

Well Bora and Lora are very similar in terms of specs and their CEPs are the same: 10 meters.

SOM ?

SOMs are not delivered yet; Roketsan had itroduced special winged guidance kits for Azeri Su-25s back jn the day but I don't know if its in Azeri service or not.

10 SOMB1's are delievered to Azerbaycan in 2017 after that there are no reports.

There are rumors that Russian peacekeeper are gonna be sent to Nagrono Karabakh. It's interesting to see how much more land Azerbaijan could retrieve before talks between the great powers ensued.

I read the opposite. I read that Russians would not send their troops in Karabag without Azerbaycan's consent. Kremlin Spokeman Peskov said that.
